Cologne: Noctes Atticae: Accesserunt eruditissimi viri Petri Mosellani easdem per doctae Adnotationes Aulus, Gellius. Coloniae Agrippinae: Gualthero Fabricio, 1566. Rare post incunable copy of Attic Nights by Latin author Aulus Gellius, ca. 125-180 AD, bound in a stunning and perhaps more important 14th century German-Latin antiphonal leaf. Gellius was never counted as a major author in antiquity, nor later. This, his only work, 'Noctes Atticae' or 'Attic Nights', is a miscellany that ranges from literature to law, from wondrous tales to moral philosophy; all planted within and fertilizing the Latin language. The exposition, in a mildly archaizing but never difficult Latin, often takes the form of dialogues with or between culturally eminent persons whom Gellius had known. It derives its name from the fact of its having been written during the long nights of a winter which the author spent in Attica as a young itinerant student. The Noctes Atticae were exploited by pagans and Christians alike in late antiquity. In medieval florilegia he is much quoted for piquant tales and moral sentiments. From Petrarch onward Gellius became a favorite author of the Renaissance; more than 100 manuscripts were copied. He was used as a valuable source of information on the Latin language, and had preserved numerous quotations from lost authors, which were presented with grace and elegance. Gellius became a model for the 'Miscellanea' of the Italian humanist Angelo Poliziano. In the 18th century, however, new canons of elegance caused his style to seem less attractive, and compilation sank to

Paris: de l'imprimerie de M. de Vascosan, 1566. Paris: de l'imprimerie de M. de Vascosan,, 1566. Small quarto (151 x 97 mm), 24 pages. Late 19th- or early 20th-century half morocco and marbled boards, spine lettered gilt, comb marbled endpapers, green silk ribbon marker. Woodcut vignette and initials. Extremities very lightly rubbed, closed tear at foot of title repaired, small wax stain to a couple of leaves; a very good copy. First edition of Malestroit's controversial treatise demonstrating, against the contemporary popular opinion in France, the constancy of prices over the past three centuries. Malestroit sought to prove that, despite the nominal raising of prices, the goods had in fact been exchanged for the same quantity of gold or silver, because the lowering quantity of metal in the coins had remained proportional to the increase in prices. This work, now scarce in its first edition, provoked a famous Réponse by Bodin, published in 1568, an attack on the effects of the deluge of Peruvian silver that had invaded Europe, in which he was the first to demonstrate "that the diminution in the weight of the coins was by no means commensurate with the change in prices" (Monroe, p. 57). Malestroict's work was also the first to use the form of "paradoxes" in economics. Its theory "influenced the monetary reform of 1577 which made it obligatory to render accounts in real money, taking the escu d'or as its basis" (A. Steczowicz, "Renaissance Monetary Paradoxes: the Malestroit-Bodin controversy", in Renaissance Journal 2.4, Warwick University, June 2005). Three issues were

1566. I am limited to 12 photos on eBay, but I have many more photos on my website...just ask. This rare 16th-century humanist law book was written by Andre Tiraqueau. Tiraqueau was a French jurist and politician most known for his legal writings. This work, and the commentary he wrote, addressed the topic of 16th-century nobility. He brings to the light the social classes represented in France, but focuses heavily on royalty. Text includes margin annotations and includes a detailed index at the back.

Thomas of Ireland (fl. 1295 - ca. 1338), known as Thomas Hibernicus, was an Irish writer most known as an anthologist. Thomas was the author of three short works on theology and biblical exegesis, and the compiler of the Manipulus florum. Florum saw dozens of printings beginning in 1483 through the 19th-century. While Hibernicus wrote from a mainly secular standpoint, this work was relevant to many preachers as a sermon reference tool for finding quotations on various subjects. However, perhaps the most important facet of Hibernicus's work is that he is considered the earliest pioneer of indexing techniques, such as subject indeces and cross-references. "In his selection, and in the various indexing techniques he invented or improved on, he revealed true originality and inventiveness." (Rouses, Preachers). Exceedingly rare with no other example for sale worldwide Main author: Thomas of Ireland Title: Flores omnium pene doctorum, qui cùm in Theologia, tum in Philosophia hactenus claruerunt : sedulo collecti per Thomam Hibernicum... autores, ex quibus depromptae gnomologiae, in ipsa Operis fronte praesixi sunt.

He operated his own printshop in Bruges, where he published Caius Julius Caesar, or a History of Roman Emperors in Medals (1563) and The Life of Julius Caesar (1566).
